APPENDIX TO THE CODE OF POINTS 2017-2020 2 202001_APP. COP 2017-20_E_CHANGES.DOCX

INTRODUCTION
In an effort to harmonize and simplify many aspects of the FIG disciplines, the FIG Executive
Committee (EC) has taken the decision to remove a number of procedures from the Code of Points
(COP) and has decided these rules to be under the authority of the EC. Concentrating these rules
into one document allows the EC to be more flexible and react quicker if needed. Since these rules
apply to all the disciplines then a more common understanding and better harmonization can be
achieved. The following rules are applicable for the 2017-2020 cycle, and will be changed only by a
decision of the EC. These rules must be added as an appendix to the COP. In case of contradictions
between these rules and the COP these rules shall prevail.

A) RULES FOR THE DUTIES OF THE SUPERIOR JURY / AS WELL AS THE JURY
OF APPEAL AND COMPETITION SUPERVISORY BOARD AT FIG
COMPETITIONS
1. Jury of Appeal / Competitions’ Supervisory Board

The Jury of Appeal consists of two members of the EC with one of them acting as President, and a
third competent person who was involved neither in the decision of the Competition Jury, nor in the
decision of the Superior Jury. The TC President concerned or any other appropriate person may be
called as a consultant.
The Presidential Commission appoints the two members. A third person may be nominated on site
according to the needs by the President or his representative.
The Jury of Appeal deals at an appropriate time with any appeals made by judges who have been
warned or excluded by the Superior Jury. The Jury of Appeal also deals with any other appeal made
by sanctioned delegation members.
The Jury of Appeal must attend all competition sessions where designated. They attend the drawing
of lots for the judges and all briefings to supervise the appropriate practices and procedures were
applied and should also attend the judges’ instruction when possible.
Any major or extraordinary (unforeseen in the rules) incidents occurring during a competition or its
preparation must be reported to the Jury of Appeal as soon as possible. The Jury of Appeal may not
render decisions or give opinions in any case where they may be given an eventual appeal.
The Jury of Appeal also monitors that the requirements of the Statutes, TR, Rules and Guidelines
are observed. In case of any offence the Jury of Appeal reports to the responsible body for taking
any action. They do not interfere directly, but draw the responsible person’s attention to the problem,
requesting him/her to deal with it (TC, LOC, FIG Staff). Should serious discrepancies occur or the
offence not be corrected, it shall report the case to the Director of the Gymnastics Ethics Foundation
for possible action.
The Jury of Appeal shall provide a written report at the conclusion of the competition regarding any
appeals and actions taken. This report can include suggestions regarding improvements observed
from their duties.
The members of the Jury of Appeal must uphold the respect of the sporting ethics by assuring that
all the gymnasts be judged fairly.
The Jury of Appeal and Competitions’ Supervisory Board was introduced by the EC of the FIG. It
has a political and controlling function over and it supervises the whole FIG competitions. The
members make sure that the competitions run within all current rules, Technical Regulations (TR)
and the Statutes of the FIG. They do not interfere directly, but draw the responsible person’s attention
to the problem, requesting him or her to deal with it (TC, LOC, FIG Staff).
The Jury of Appeal and Competitions’ Supervisory Board consists of two members of the EC
appointed by the Presidential Commission (one of them acting as President), and a third competent
person who was involved neither in the decision of the Competition Jury, nor in the decision of the
Superior Jury. The Technical President concerned or any other appropriate person may be called
as consultant. The details of the tasks and competences have been decided by the EC as follows:
The Jury of Appeal and Competitions’ Supervisory Board supervises the total competition operation
and all its preceding phases. In particular, it:
– oversees the drawing of lots for the judges and the correct application of the drawing of lots
of the gymnasts
– oversees the rotation and starting orders of the teams (ART)

– ensures the collaboration between the Competitions Director and the Venue Manager,
collaborates with the official scorer (SwissTiming), and all the other operational facilities to
ensure that the competition flows well
– ensures the competition protocols for the various ceremonies, press conferences and
orientation meetings are organized
– oversees the composition of the juries and the conduct of the judges
– may request a video analysis, not for the modification of the scores, but rather to verify the
conduct of the judges immediately after the competition. Should serious discrepancies occur,
it might suggest that the EC reviews the matter.
2. Composition and duties of the Superior Jury

At official FIG Competitions and the Olympic Games, the Technical Committees (TC) will constitute
the Superior Jury and act as Supervisors for the Olympic disciplines and assigned responsibilities
for Aerobic and Acrobatic Gymnastics.

(JEP) system is used.
*See below for specificities for all disciplines
2.3 Procedures for all interventions (except inquiries)

Intervention of the Supervisors can only be made through the President of the Superior Jury.
In case of an intervention, the President of the Superior Jury must contact the judges concerned and
inform them of the score given by the Supervisor. The judges have the choice to change their score.
In case judges decide not to change the score, the President of the Superior Jury may overrule them.
The President of the Superior Jury shall keep a record of all interventions and all changes of scores.
This must be included in the report of the event.
2.3.1 D-Score
Intervention of the Supervisors for the D-Score shall take place:
– in case of an inquiry by the coach for their own gymnast;
– in case of deviation between the Supervisor’s score and the judges’ D-Score as outlined in
the specifications for each discipline.
2.3.2 E-Score and A-Score – Impossible Scores

Intervention of the Supervisors for the E-, or A-Score shall take place only in case of impossible
score.
An impossible score is defined as follows:
When penalties/compulsory deductions* are higher than the individual judge`s score:
Maximum score: 10.00 pts Penalty/Compulsory deductions (e.g. fall ART): 1.0 pt.
Scores: 9.2 8.5 8.3 8.4 9.1

Impossible scores
* e.g. of Penalty/Compulsory deductions: (these are only a few examples, the list is not meant to be
complete.)
– ART – Fall 1.00 pts;
– RG – Loss of apparatus 0.50/0.70/1.00 pts. Finishing without the music and the apparatus
1.0 pts;

0.30 pt. each;
– ACRO – Fall 1.00 pt., missing time in balance elements 0.30 pt. each second;
– AER – Fall 0.50 pt., etc.
When obviously a judge entered the deductions and not the score or vice-versa:
Scores: 1.9 8.2 8.0 8.1 7.9
Impossible score (should be 8.1)
2.3.3 E-Score and A-Score – Possible Scores
When the scores have a big difference:

Judges’ scores: 7.9 8.1 8.8 7.8 8.0
Score must be accepted without interference

ART / RG / TRA / AER / ACRO (R-Judges) See “Rules for Reference Judges”
2.3.6 Prevention of publication of impossible scores on the scoreboards and TV

In order to be able to intervene before the final score is released to the public, the respective
Supervisor and the President of Superior Jury is given the possibility to stop the publication of the
final score and to block the result system in order to intervene. For this purpose, the result system
shall provide a clearly marked stop device or key which must be activated by either the Supervisor
or the President of the Superior Jury within 10 (ten) seconds after the last score appeared.

Should the publication of the score not have been stopped within 10 seconds, the score is released
automatically. The result system shall block automatically in case of non-allowed deviations between
the D-Scores of the judges’ panel and the D-Score of the Supervisor as described in the clarifications
specific for each discipline here below, as well as in the case of a deviation of more than 2.00 pts
between any score given within a specific panel.

of the Rotation or Group for Qualifications or before the score of the following gymnast is shown
for all Finals) and informs the Event Coordinator Sports Event Manager. The Event Coordinator
Sports Event Manager informs the official scoring and data handling provider (SwissTiming),
and the speaker.
2.4.5 The inquiry shall activate a video review of the exercise by an independent and neutral panel
composed of the President of the Superior Jury and 2 Members of the Superior Jury who were
not involved in the generation /creation /review of the original score. The panel will also take
into consideration the score given by the respective Supervisor. The decision of the panel is
final and cannot be appealed. If the score of the panel is equal to the D-Score, the appeal shall
be rejected; if the score of the panel is different (higher or lower) than the D-Score, the original
D-Score shall be replaced with the score of the panel. The President of the Superior Jury shall
inform the Event Coordinator Sports Event Manager. The Event Coordinator Sports Event
Manager informs the official scoring / data handling provider (SwissTiming), and the speaker.
2.4.6 In the case the score is changed, the President of the Superior Jury informs the Supervisor
and the D-Judges concerned.
2.4.7 The President of the Superior Jury shall keep a record of all inquiries and decisions taken.

B) RULES FOR REFERENCE JUDGES
INTRODUCTION
The Reference Judges’ System (RJS) has been introduced to establish an automatic and time-
saving correction system in case of problems with E- and A-Scores. The FIG’s decision to introduce
R-Judges comes in an effort to uphold greater sport justice in competition. By creating a control body
completely independent of the traditional judges’ panel, the FIG intends to correct any unintentional
or intentional severe mistakes.
1. Principles
– In Artistic Gymnastics the R-Judges will be used for Execution. The R-Judges (2 per jury) will
judge all apparatus in all parts of the respective competitions (Qualifications, Team Final
Individual All-Around Final and Apparatus Finals; where applicable).
– In Rhythmic Gymnastics the R-Judges will be used for Execution (E3-E6, technical faults).
The R-Judges will judge all apparatus in all parts of the respective competitions for individuals
and for groups.
– In Trampoline Gymnastics (all disciplines), Acrobatic Gymnastics and Aerobic Gymnastics
there are no R-Judges.
– In Aerobic Gymnastics the R-Judges will be used for Execution and Artistic. The R-Judges
(2 in each E-Jury and 2 in each A-Jury) will judge all exercises in all parts of the respective
competitions for individuals, pairs, trios, groups, AERO step and AERO dance.
– In Acrobatic Gymnastics the R-Judges will be used for Execution and Artistic. The R-Judges
(2 in each E-Jury and 2 in each A-Jury) will judge all exercises in all parts of the respective
competitions for pairs and groups.
2. Detailed calculation system and examples

In the RJS, a comparison between the E-Jury Score and the RE-Score is made. In case the delta
between these two scores exceeds the pre-defined allowed tolerances (see tables below), the
average of the RE- and E-Jury Scores forms the “final” E-Score and replaces the E-Jury Score.
2.1 Artistic Gymnastics

The RE-Score (the first column) decides the maximum allowed delta (the second column) between
the RE-Score and the E-Jury Score:
RE-Score Allowed delta between RE-Score and E-Jury

Score
9.600 – 10.00 0.05 pts
9.400 – 9.599 0.10 pts
9.000 – 9.399 0.15 pts
8.500 – 8.999 0.20 pts
8.000 – 8.499 0.30 pts
7.500 – 7.999 0.40 pts
0.000 – 7.499 0.50 pts

In case the delta is equal to or less than the allowed tolerance, the score of the E-Jury stands; in
case the delta is greater than the allowed tolerance the average of the RE- and E-Jury Scores form
the “final” E-Score.
Calculation of the “Final” E-Score (in case of too large delta):
E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E Jury Score RE1 RE2 RE Score

8.9 9.0 9.0 8.9 9.2 8.966 9.1 9.2 9.150
Delta: 0.183 pts
E-Jury Score RE-Score Final E-Score

8.966 + 9.150 = 18.117 / 2 = 9.058
Exceptions
In case the gap between the scores of the 2 RE-Judges is bigger than pre-defined tolerances (see
table below), the RE-Score is not taken into account at all (i.e. the calculation of the E-Score is made
the “traditional” way and the E-Jury Score stands).
The E-Jury Score (the first column) decides the maximum allowed gap (the second column) between
the two RE-Judges:
E-Jury Score Allowed gap between RE1 and RE2

9.600 - 10.000 0.00 pts
9.400 – 9.599 0.10 pts
9.000 – 9.399 0.20 pts
8.500 – 8.999 0.30 pts
8.000 – 8.499 0.40 pts
7.500 – 7.999 0.50 pts
< 7.500 0.60 pts
2.2 Rhythmic Gymnastics
2.2.1 E-Deductions
The RE Deductions (the first column) decide the maximum allowed delta (the second column)
between the respective RE Deductions and the E3-E6 Jury Deductions:
RE Deductions Allowed delta between RE Deductions and

E3-E6 Jury Deductions
0.00 – 0.50 0.00
0.51 – 0.80 0.10
0.81 – 1.30 0.20
1.31 – 2.30 0.30
2.31 – 3.50 0.40
3.51 – 4.70 0.50
4.71 – 10.00 0.60

In case the delta is equal to or less than the allowed tolerance, the score of the E-Jury stands; in
case the delta is greater than the allowed tolerance the average of the RE- and E-Jury Deductions
forms the “final” E-Score.
Calculation of the E3 – E6 Deductions (in case of too large delta):

E3 – E6 Deductions
E1/E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E3-E6 Final RE1 RE2 RE Final

C) RULES FOR THE USE OF IRCOS
DIRECTIVES FOR THE RESTRICTED USE OF IRCOS DURING THE COMPETITION

In order to avoid abusive and excessive use and video judging and in order to guarantee the
competition runs on schedule, the use of IRCOS must be strictly restricted and ruled as follows:
IRCOS may be used only in case of an inquiry
Exceptions:
– IRCOS shall be available at all times for the President of the Superior Jury, the Jury of Appeal
and Competitions’ Supervisory Board as well as the FIG President and Secretary General.
– IRCOS shall be available for the Supervisors after having given their scores.
– IRCOS shall be available for the D-Judges only in case of intervention of the Supervisor or
the President of the Superior Jury.
– IRCOS shall be available for the D-Judges in MAG and WAG upon request in the case of “0-
vault”.
Reasoning:
The IRCOS was NOT introduced to replace the existing judging system by a video judging system.
IRCOS has the following purposes:
During the competition:

Support tool for: The President of the Superior Jury
The Jury of Appeal and Competitions’ Supervisory Board
The Panel treating inquiries
The Supervisors in case of impossible scores and D-scores where applicable
The D-Judges in case of intervention of the Supervisor or the President of the
Superior Jury
After the competition:

Tool for Control and analyses of the judging
Education video for coaches, judges and the Academies
Member federations’ coaches and other interested persons


D) INVALID RESULTS DESIGNATIONS BASED ON TECHNICAL REGULATION 8.5
TRAMPOLINE, AEROBIC, ACROBATIC GYMNASTICS
Identical to the new version which will be added in the Tech Reg
Definitions
DNS “Did not start” indicates that the gymnast did not start a routine or did not attempt a vault
(ART). If she/he just presents to the judges and performs “nothing”, no score will be
awarded and a designation of DNS will be awarded.
DNF “Did not finish” indicates that a gymnast did not complete a phase of the competition after
having started (i.e.: if a gymnast stops after 2 apparatus in all-around finals, due to injury).
Disqualification
 Disqualification Types
DSQ - Disqualification for breach of FIG competition rules

A disqualification due to breach of FIG competition rules is part of normal competition and should be
indicated with the Invalid Results Mark "DSQ". Such a ruling by FIG officials indicates that the
concerned gymnast/group cannot be considered for placing in the disputed phase.
Disqualification from the qualification phase means that the gymnast/group may not proceed to any
finals.
Disqualification from a final means that the gymnast/group receives no results in that final, but the
gymnast/group may compete in subsequent finals.
For Team competition/ranking the disqualified gymnast's results will be removed from the team and
the team results will be re-calculated.
DQB - Disqualification for unsportsmanlike behavior
A disqualification due to any violation of the Olympic Charter, of the World Anti-Doping Code, or any
other serious breach of applicable regulation issued by the IOC, the FIG or an NOC should be
indicated with the Invalid Results Mark "DQB".
The IOC in consultation with FIG have complete discretion regarding whether an athlete will be
disqualified from a single event, or some or all of the events in which the athlete is entered
(completed, in progress or future).
“0.000” A zero is a valid score awarded by the judges for infringements outlined in the rules
(Code of Points).
Consequences of IRM
DNS and DNF have the following consequences:
 No qualification into further rounds of that apparatus, or further phase of the competition if
applicable.
